The anti Andrew and family (I.e. Sarah and daughters) seems to be a long standing tradition on these boards.

Not only here but throughout the online and offline communities. Every forum is largely anti-the Yorks and the UK media aren't supportive either.
When I was in the UK in 2015 I asked many people I meet what they thought about the various members of the BRF and universally the Yorks were loathed - all of them, not just Andrew. No one had a good word to say about any of them.
If you try to say anything good about them on most boards or elsewhere online you get shouted down by the myriad of haters.

I am personally not a fan of any of the York family. This is purely based on my opinion of them as being people who aren't shy of causing controversy. My favourite royals, in comparison, are undoubtedly HM, Philip and Anne. No nonsense, hardworking people who get on with the job without expecting glory or attention.

Do you expect the Archbishop of Canterbury will marry Eugeine and Jack?

I am not a fan of Andrew or Fergie, but have nothing against their daughters. I think they often get a lot of dislike directed against them, solely because of their parents.

I am not sure. Edward had the Bishop of Norwich and the Dean of Windsor and he is the son of the monarch so maybe Eugenie will go that way as well.

Eugenie's wedding OFFICIALLY bigger than Meghan's after the royal invites 250 more guests | Daily Mail Online
Reportedly 850 guests have been invited to the wedding (the chapel only has a capacity for 800 - so extra seats will be brought in)
‘The wedding itself is going to be huge and they are hoping quite a few of the people they’ve invited won’t be able to come because of the capacity issue,’ said one source.
https://www.thetimes.co.uk/edition/n...bash-kdnhgszhc
The wedding will be a two day affair.
Day 1 - Wedding/church service, Lunch-time reception hosted by the queen, and black tie reception at Royal Lodge attended by 400 guests.
Day 2 - Saturday afternoon there will be another celebration being billed as a “festival and funfair” themed party at the Royal Lodge.
While Harry and Meghan's wedding reception was hosted at one state room at Windsor Castle (St George’s Hall). Eugenie and Jack's reception will be spread across 3 state rooms (St George’s Hall,Grand Reception Room and the Waterloo Chamber.)
No expense is being spared on the flowers at St.George Chapel.

In light of these pieces of news and the fact that the public ballot to attend the wedding ended or should end this weekend, I think we should be getting new information from the Palace this coming week, most likely about places and times.

I fervently hope that Princess Eugenie is happy now and not stressed. I hope the wedding is everything she and Jack would hope for.

From all accounts, it seems like this wedding is going to be one huge party and celebration of a marriage. To me, all that matters is that Eugenie and Jack have the wedding of their dreams and the opportunity to create memories that will last them a lifetime.
It also sounds like Andrew and Sarah are, very happily, willing to go to any lengths to ensure this will be the wedding of their daughter's dream. Can't ask for more than that.
I am looking forward to following the events of this wedding. We need more happy and glorious occasions in this world.

When Lady Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon married Prince Albert, Duke of York she got the Archbishop of York to marry them. Could Princess Eugenie of York get the Archbishop of York for her wedding?

I could see them choosing a personal choice. The dean of Windsor makes the most sense. Eugenie grew up at Windsor and attended st Georges school, for whom the dean of Windsor is head of as well. The current dean was head of the school when she attended. It goes along the lines of the old tradition of marrying in the bride's home church.
She was baptized by the bishop of Norwich as she was baptized in sandringham. But the bishop who baptized her passed away.

I can see why there were complaints about the security costs. A two day wedding event for the ninth in line to the throne? If Eugenie were a future queen regnant I could see a big to-do but it seems like compensating for no live broadcast of the wedding ceremony. And the festival? It's a type of party a Hollywood A or B lister would do. I hope pictures aren't sold to the tabloids like they were to Peter and Autumn's wedding.
